Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to find a reduction in biochemical and oxidative stress markers, assessed through blood tests, using assay kits, based on the verification of reduction in pre- and post-intervention measurements by statistical analysis.;It is expected to find a reduction in proteins related to adipogenesis, obesity and inflammation, evaluated through blood tests, using test kits, based on the observation of reduction in pre- and post-intervention measurements by statistical analysis.;It is expected to find a reduction in the subjective sensations of appetite, assessed by the application of a 10 cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), based on the observation of a reduction in pre- and post-intervention measurements by means of statistical analyses.;It is expected to find a reduction in anthropometric measurements and an improvement in body composition. Anthropometry will be evaluated by measuring weight, height, hip, waist and neck circumference and body composition by Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DEXA). The expected reduction will come from the finding of reduction in pre- and post-intervention measurements by statistical analyses. | — |
